A few usability issues there.
But not, I suggest, when you have fully learned to use the product.
True. Although part of the definition of usability is that a
product's basic features should support new users.
Agreed. But users do need to be prepared to learn. Chapter 3 of the
Writer Guide explains that normal pasting means that "pasted text
keeps its original formatting (such as bold or italics)" and explains
how to use Paste Special to avoid this - though it doesn't mention
font, font size, font colour, or indeed language. And this behaviour
is common in other office suites.
If you think that the benefits of Paste Special are insufficiently
trumpeted, then I'm right behind you. When appropriate, my fingers
naturally fall on Ctrl+Shift+V.
